Spare tyre size

I've just read some previous topics about spare tyre size. My D3 runs on 255/55 19 however the spare is 255/50 19. Should I worry about the difference in rolling distance.

That's a RRS sized tyre for a spare, prob under weighted as well.

I might have to think about a bit of shopping then.

Is it the same wheel as the rest? Plenty of wheels and tyres go on here and e bay, sometimes for less than the price of just buying a tyre! Joined the BMWX5 45e group

It's a slightly different style wheel, so I'll keep an eye open for a matching one. Just been one a tyre size comparison and its 3.3% smaller.
